Re: USS Essex

Ok Mr. Dork, u did spend some time in AA, i hope u dont just sit in USS Essex and be a commander.

some time? hes spent 67 hours in Air Defense, which takes patience. I give him props as he sticks to it. Me, if i get killed by a jet while im in the gun, I have to get up in the air and kill him up there.

Re: USS Essex

No, I spawn as engineer, form a squad called air defense, and "defend" the carrier. When the island arty get's taken I jump in a boat, go kill the bad guys, fix the arty and return to the carrier. Also take care of UAV and SAT and those pesky campers who bail out of the chopper (pig) and try to camp the spawn (the Phalnx is particulary effective against enemy troops).
Once the airfield is secure I go on the offensive and try to help by fixing/gunning for the blackhawk.

1. Defend carrier is suicide, if there is a need to defend and you arent geting slaughtered then you do your team a favor by leaving that jet in the air, because chances are hes taking a jet a much better pilot could be using but was forced to play infantry.

2. Boat = best suicide machine in the game. Its weak, shows up on radar (or just by the huge white trail), extremly slow, can carry up to 4 suiciders. They are basically free kills, when any conpetent jet sees one he can kill you in 1/4 of a second and keep doing what he was doing as though you were just a bug.
If your boat tactic works then the other pilot sucks and you are wasting valuable manpower on popintless air defense.

3. If the other team lets you take the airport, being the most important command point in the game, and your team actually managed to travel all the way to the airport alive, then there arent any good pilot worth capturing airport for in the first place.

Boats don't norammaly show up on the planes radar as a box or if they do they will disappear again.
